Hieronymus Bosch, The Haywain Triptych
ca 1510-16

“Hieronymus Bosch, The Haywain Triptych consists of four parts: the left panel named ‘Paradise’ shows the origin of sin on Earth with Adam and Eve being expulsed from Paradise by Archangel Michael. The center panel depicts mankind in sin trying to avail themselves of the earthly possessions symbolized by the hay. The right panel depicts the fires of Hell, while the back sides of both side panels show an old pilgrim trying to find his way in a dangerous world.
The triptych was thoroughly investigated by The Bosch Research and Conservation Project. The results of this investigation … reveals a limited palette consisting of the cheaper pigments employed in the Renaissance period, such as azurite, lead-tin yellow, vermilion, carmine kermes, and ochres.”

Anthony van Dyck, Lord John Stuart and his Brother, Lord Bernard Stuart
ca 1638

“Medium: Oil
Support: Canvas
Size: 237.5 x 146.1 cm
Art period: Baroque
National Gallery London
NG6518
A late portrait of the two sons of the 3rd Duke of Lennox. The two figures are prominently placed and worked out in considerable detail, while the background is left sketchy and gives an unfinished impression.
The pigment analysis casts light on the elaborate handling of painting materials in the costumes of both young men. Lord Bernard’s blue satin dress is painted in several layers of indigo, lead white and azurite to achieve the rich sheen of the fabric.”
